Cultivating Immortality Starts with Rubbing a Computer

Chapter 67 Alchemy
The three foundation-building medicines are the three medicinal materials needed to refine the foundation-building pill.

The three medicinal materials can be combined at will, and there are many substitute versions.

But no matter how things change, the three elements of "essence, energy and spirit" remain unchanged.

The red dragon fruit represents the medicinal material of "essence".

Fang Jun felt that with his current accumulation, he definitely did not need the so-called foundation-building pill.

It is also not like some extreme cultivators who need to take ten foundation-building pills to break through.

But Fang Jun needs Zhenhai Pill, and the main ingredient of Zhenhai Pill is Guixin Fruit, which represents the "God" among the three foundation-building medicines.

He didn't get it when he looted Red Sand City.

It’s not that there is no Hongsha City.

But there is not enough time to search.

Fang Jun asked, "Do you have any Guixin Fruit?"

Yu Rui said, "The Guixin Fruit, one of the three foundation-building herbs? Well, the Guixin Fruit is a secondary herb among the three foundation-building herbs because of its ancient medicinal properties."

"I won't use it for refining unless it's absolutely necessary."

"But it is ultimately a good medicine for stabilizing the sea of ​​consciousness, and it is quite rare."

Fang Jun deliberately asked, "It's rare. I often heard in Fuchi City that it was sold to the public."

"If I wasn't pressed for time, I would have bought some in Fuchi City."

Chu Ning said helplessly: "This is Ding Sanliu, not Fuchi City. How can it have the same source of goods as Fuchi City?"

"Okay, Fellow Daoist Li, since you want the Guixin Fruit, I'll help you find out if there are any fellow Daoists from other guilds selling it."

Fang Jun thanked him, "Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Chu."

The three chatted for a while, and then Fang Jun left on the pretext of having something to do.

After Fang Jun left, Yu Rui said to Chu Ning in dissatisfaction: "Manager Chu, how could you make friends with such an ignorant and shameless person?"

"You can't even tell the difference between big and small auctions, yet you're so shameless as to accept my favor."

Chu Ning said nonchalantly, "As for casual cultivators, most of them are like this. Their lack of experience is due to their background, and their thick skin is the foundation of their advancement."

"If it weren't for this, Fellow Daoist Li Yun wouldn't have reached the fifth level of Qi Refining."

"And don't think that independent cultivators are not worth making friends with."

"After all, independent cultivators come from the lower classes, and their perspectives on many issues are different from ours."

"If you are good at summarizing the information from them, you may gain different results."

"I was born with a talent for judging people very well. I think Fellow Daoist Li Yun and I are very compatible."

"He will definitely bring me good luck, just like my previous experience."

Yu Rui snorted coldly: "So this is why you disobeyed the young master's orders and told him about the dancer?"

Chu Ning shook his head: "I dare not take the charge of disobeying the orders of the young master. The young master never said that it is forbidden to spread this matter."

Yu Rui complained, "There's no need to elaborate on many things. From ancient times to the present, there have been certain laws of nature. Honoring the respected is one of them."

Chu Ning said, "That's not the way of the world of immortal cultivation. Forget it, it's pointless to tell you this. You just need to know that I am wholeheartedly working for you, young master."

Yu Rui sneered and said, "It is precisely because of this that I can continue to tolerate you."

Chu Ning smiled slightly: "That's great, I just want to get a Guixin Fruit for Fellow Daoist Li Yun."

Yu Rui was furious when she heard this: "You!"

Chu Ning said leisurely, "This is my authority. Manager Yu, you are not allowed to interfere."

Yu Rui was furious and turned away, "You'll have to take care of yourself."

Chu Ning looked at Yu Rui's back and laughed, thinking to himself, "If you are the type who indulges in women, I would not want to offend you."

"But the young master is a man of great ambitions. He is not satisfied with the first level of foundation building. He wants to climb several more levels in the foundation building realm."

"Even a glimpse of the Golden Core Realm."

"Nothing's wrong with you."

……

In the Class C suite.

Fang Jun sat cross-legged, his eyes half-closed. Before him, a bronze alchemy furnace hovered in mid-air. Its body was simple and heavy, its surface engraved with intricate runes, and a faint aura of spiritual light emanated from it.

This was one of Fang Jun’s gains in Hongsha City.

Beneath the alchemy furnace, a ball of blazing flames burned fiercely.

This is the spiritual fire ignited by Fang Jun with his magic power.

As the spells in his hands changed, the alchemy furnace and the flame began to change accordingly.

The alchemy furnace rotates and the flames rise.

The temperature inside the furnace is always precisely controlled at every node where temperature change is required.

"Refining the Sea-Suppressing Pill isn't that difficult, after I've used Yuanshen No. 3 for many simulations."

"The success rate of alchemy is 100%."

"The only thing missing is the main ingredient, the Guixin Fruit. I hope Chu Ning can bring me good news."

"Before we start refining the elixir, let's practice refining some mana-restoring elixirs and improve our mana control level."

"To avoid accidents at that time."

Fang Jun also planned to do the same with his third life-saving magic weapon, Liuguang Yinian Fu, and practice it first.

After all, the materials are rare and difficult to collect.

Be sure to succeed at once.

"call--!"

Fang Jun opened his mouth and spit out a stream of magic power, and the magic formula in his hand also changed, drawing the spiritual energy into the alchemy furnace suspended in the air.

The alchemy furnace also vibrated rapidly, and then the flame quickly went out.

After the shock ends, it is quickly ignited.

After repeating this ten times, the flame turned into a small fire and began to burn the alchemy furnace.

"In fact, the process of alchemy is very similar to chemical synthesis in the laboratory."

"Hmm...actually, it's essentially the same. This world is also made up of atoms. Without the involvement of spiritual energy, the chemical reaction equation is almost exactly the same as in the previous life."

"The only difference is that the chemical reaction equation changes after the spiritual energy is involved."

"It's like a catalyst, changing the energy barrier. It allows impossible chemical reactions to occur, and allows possible chemical reactions to occur."

"After being refined, these herbs form some macromolecules that are beneficial to the human body, or some energy that can easily replenish mana."

“And chemistry is also an empirical science.”

"As long as I summarize the physical and chemical reactions of alchemy, I can deduce new chemical reaction equations."

Of course, this chemical formula already exists in the elixir recipe.

Just as it is said in the ancient book Baopuzi, "Cinnabar turns into mercury when burned, and turns back into cinnabar when accumulated."

It is a chemical formula for the extraction of mercury.

The knowledge in the world of immortal cultivation is more detailed, and even the coefficients that are not in "Baopuzi" are marked.

Moreover, chemical reaction equations are densely packed, and refining a pill involves dozens of equations.

Moreover, many chemical reaction equations utilize the magic of mana to simulate various harsh reaction conditions.

To achieve the instant change of the elixir.

In other words, the elixir recipes in the world of immortal cultivation are not as non-quantifiable as the ancient books in previous lives.

It is a detailed recipe that accurately marks all the processes.

It is extremely suitable for training skilled alchemists.

The only difficulty lies in the fact that after the spiritual energy is involved, the nature of the spiritual energy leads to many more problems that need to be calculated in the alchemy process.

This is where your talent for alchemy is tested.

Therefore, the new chemical equation that Fang Jun studied was the chemical equation summarized after exploring the essence of spiritual energy.

This brings us back to the starting point of all immortal cultivation issues—
